PURPOSE OF THE CAMP
The primary purpose of the Texan basketball camp is to provide young men with an opportunity to develop the fundamental skills necessary to elevate their game to the next level.
The camp will focus on the importance of correct footwork with and without the basketball to make you a better offensive player. You will learn how to score the basketball more effectively with less effort.
Campers will also have the opportunity to use these skills developed in a five on five scrimmage situation. Team offensive and defensive concepts will be taught to campers during the scrimmage periods.
The camp is set up to accommodate both day and overnight campers. Day campers may commute daily from their homes to the SPC Levelland campus, while overnight campers may spend the week on campus in a college residence hall.
